PE (P-2) Term Three
Students in Prep to Year Two will engage in a Touch Football unit. Students will start by focusing on the basics of catching and throwing a touch football, making a touch, scoring a try and playing the ball. Students will then use these newly acquired skills to play modified games of touch football.
PE (3-6) Term Three
Students in Year Three to Year Six will also be participating in a touch football unit. Students will learn to pass and catch a touch football, play the ball, defend, perform a dump and split, perform a wrap, three-person ruck and draw and pass. Students will then put these skills in to game-based situations playing in teams against members of their class.
Health (Prep – Year 2) Term Three
In Term Three and Term Four, Prep, Year One and Year Two students will be engaged in health lessons on Wednesdays. Prep students will be learning about how their body parts work to help them move, what happens as they grow and how to look after their body by living a healthy and active lifestyle. Year One will be focusing one changes when they grow, what has changed since they were a baby, looking at difference and their identity, and how to live an active and healthy life. The learning focus for Year Two is a more in-depth insight into healthy eating, steps to increase physical activity at home and in the playground at school, keeping a healthy and safe classroom and how we can include others.
